Note:

DIY stands for 'Doing It Yourself'. A number of
hosts allow users to run CGI scripts and access databases. Therefore,
some services (e.g Wiki) that are not immediately available can be setup
by the users themselves.

www.gforge.org
actually only hosts
one project - GForge itself (so please do not go there and ask for
hosting). Nevertheless, a good number of FOSPHost sites are employing
GForge at the moment (see List of
GForge sites). Therefore, by comparing 'GForge' with other sites, the
comparison can roughly cover the sites that employ GForge (Each individual
site has the choice of enabling/providing each of the
service/functionality listed above, but it should be safe to assume most
of the service/functionality enabled/provided will be similar.) The
number of members and projects on www.gforge.org are thus irrelevant as
they carry a different meaning comparing to other sites.

I can only read English and Chinese so site such as TuxFamily.org cannot be evaluated.
Sorry.

Technically, GForge violate rule no. 1, as it is not available for new
projects. Nonetheless, as explained above, 'GForge' actually represents
the sites that employ GForge (see List of
GForge sites) and a number of these sites do accept new projects.
Therefore, it is included in this comparison.
A number of possible
candidates (e.g. ibiblio and Tigris.org) did not respond to the
invitations to be compared on this table and thus they are not included.
The next possible candidate may be Novell Forge, but it will take some
time.
